Frankie J's on Broadway is back...sort of. The comedian chef partnered with a couple of club promoters to open The Spot in the former Frankie J's space. Aiming to be something for everyone, you can head here for a night out at a piano bar/steakhouse/comedy improv club/lounge/tasting room/sports bar. Not enough for you? Ask about karaoke nights, food and drink specials, dart leagues, live music acts and more. With three large rooms dedicated to creating different environments, it's probably safe to say that there's something around the corner to pique your interest if you get bored.

Midnight Writer from Lincoln Square - April 15, 2008
Good bar food and some swankier items abound on the menu; the staff is young and hip; the location, albeit iffy, has ample street parking and doorm...

"Very disappointing"
HM from gold coast - March 16, 2008
This must - with no doubt - be one of the worst venues I have been to in Chicago. The food was bad, so bad we returned it.....they still charged us...
